turned off signature

turned off notifications...will observe battery tomorrow

[Duane 3NE 2NR]

^ which device? What did the error message say?

^ similar to the facebook app, you can switch off notifications for the app and it will use less power.

For android users the TriniTuner App uses Pull, not Push, so you can lengthen the time between pulls to help reduce battery life.

I have been running the app constantly on a iPhone 4 with no notable battery drain issues i.e. not any more than any other social media app with Push.

Ok cool I'll do some tweaking with the notifications.

Would a link in the email notifications to shoot you over to the app instead of the actual website be possible ?

the website on your mobile will direct you to the app. This is implemented already.

but to go straight from the email link to the app would require changes made to the app itself - we can look into it, though it may mean having two links now in each notification email: one for web and one for the app - this may cause issues with non mobile app users.

Might be "much ado" for the few users who experience battery drain who are willing to turn off notifications.

Yea tru, that would cause some kinda confusion. The email notifications work fine for me at the moment I jus dont follow the link, cause the website only sends me to the app and not the specific topic.

I switched off the notifications and the drain seems to have stopped

facebook app notifications is a worse battery hog

Why are signatures working only for Trinituner and not for Tapatalk, is this intentional?

sort of

Didn't really want a bunch of posts with "posted with Tapatalk" in it.

Well personally, I rather use Tapatalk since I am a member of several Forums, it consolidates all of them into one app, these other forums also have their own forum app based on Tapatalk.

However, this is the first time I have encountered a forum with this type of restriction with regards to displaying a signature, when I asked, I thought it was an oversight, or something to do with advertising, never did I expect it to be what you said it was, so I am a bit bewildered.

it does have to do with advertising.

I don't want to advertise Tapatalk. I want to promote our own app!
Also the signatures in Tapatalk are actual text that becomes part of each post, unlike an embedded signature used on the web version. That makes for alot of instances of the word "Tapatalk" all over our forums which drives keywords for search engines up for the term "Tapatalk", but not for "TriniTuner".

Also if you set your signature in phpbb in the browser, all the posts you make, even those made via Tapatalk or the TriniTuner app will show with your signature to web users.

Yuh deserve a next ??: for that

Why didn't you say that the first time, cause now that I fully understand, I agree with the move

[Rebelb14]

Amm dont know if anyone talked about this before in the 34 pages so far but I get a issue on my phone with the bmobile ad at the bottom. I cant select any commands that are above the banner for example copy url.

I have to select before ad loads.
Disregard if it was posted before.

Ah fed up click on that blasted bmobile banner at the bottom of the app. Funny enough stag behaving himself

[SRASC]

Apologies if this has been asked before, but wondering if it would be released for pre-BlackBerry 10 models?

Thanks.

According to Duane, no it won't.

more than likely not, since the BB10 version will be an Android port. But if we can offer the TriniTuner Mobile App for pre-BB10 devices we definitely will.

Yep after watching it today it's much better for me also, before I felt as tho I was watching the percentage count down

[Duane 3NE 2NR]

^ do either of you have notifications turned on for the Facebook app or Twitter etc?

[ShIvAm]

I have Skype, Instagram and Facebook notifications on...

[Aaron 2NR]

Facebook is a resource hog. Only turn it on when I want to check something. Lol

[Duane 3NE 2NR]

I have Skype, Instagram and Facebook notifications on...

facebook app uses far more resources than the TriniTuner app

But at least you can manage your notifications based in your personal needs

[ShIvAm]

Yea under the mobile push settings I have very little selected.

I'll give the notifications for the 2ner app another try sometime.

[Swisha]

finally decided to install it after the forum began to move slow on tapatalk. wonder y

[Elantari]

And the ads are not so bothersome.

^ hopefully no one will get fired for being on tuner in work now!

Well part of my job is keeping an eye on the company's Tuner thread, so I'm really happy

And I can get my daily kicks out of the crazy things Tuners posting en route to clients

Duane,
Twice i had a problem whereby when i selected the app, it opened the browser and went straight to the ad.
Is that supposed to happen?

you "selected" the app and it opened in the browser and went straight to the ad?

I'm trying to understand what you're saying.

when you say "selected" the app, you mean you clicked / tapped on it to open?
And when you opened it, instead of opening the actual app, it opened the web browser?
Which ad did it go to in the web browser?

[GTcruzer]

Can the ads be kept at the base of the screen at all times? The ads don't bother me but I see that it changes position in & out of threads & I think being kept at the bottom of the screen, it might not bother others as much.

not really getting too much complaints about the ads.

the ads DO show only at the bottom of the screen . They only show above the menu on screens that display the menu, but it's still at the bottom

[GTcruzer]

Yea, yea. That's what I mean. What if you kept it at the bottom of the screen at all times, meaning when the menu is displayed also. I figure people are accidentally tapping the ads instead of the thread they want to go on which is why they find it annoying.
As I said, the ads doh bother me, it's just a suggestion so it doesn't bother those users that don't like them.
